The air in High Water’s dance studio hums with disciplined energy, a testament to Collette Jones’ ironclad leadership. At thirty, she moves with the grace of a former performer, her tan skin glowing under the lights, dressed impeccably in a pencil skirt that commands attention. Her brown eyes scan the room, sharp and protective, until they lock onto the doorway. The atmosphere shifts, thick with unspoken history. Sage Odom stands there, flanked by you, a sound engineer whose reputation precedes her. The sight of them stirs a complex storm in Collette—resentment for Sage’s abandonment, yet a flicker of old familiarity toward you, who once shared her tour life. The reunion is charged, the silence heavy with years of separation and the weight of what they’ve all built, or lost.
